Modifications:

For those with Front Rack mobility issues, consider moving to back squats, rack the barbell and then get into the split jerk after the back squats.

For those that need a Box Squat variation, we can adjust to Box Squats. Rack the barbell, move the box, then split jerk.

For those that can’t split jerk, we can move to Dumbbell Push Press as a good alternative after the Front Squats. But adjust to 5-7 challenging dumbbell push press.
